Called a friend who uses an electric water pump in a Chevy 350 and he says it works, as advertised. Don't like the idea of using a factory controller tho.. Building a tail dragger. Things could get awful hot on starting and shutting down without water moving through it. Thinking along the lines of having a manual controller for a soft start and to keep temps where I want them. There would be a single pole solid switch for back up if the controller went south. Like flying skis in the winter, this would also make it easier than the possibility of blocking off part of the intake. This would be great for a water cooled turbo also on shut down. Would there be any advantages of installing the EWP just above the radiator when its under the engine? Would be easy to support, and really low on the system. The down side is when they go, they usually go now. Barny MGDQ Super Rebel 20bt
